      mac80211: support DTPC IE (from Cisco Client eXtensions) · c8d65917
      Steinar H. Gunderson 提交于
      Linux already supports 802.11h, where the access point can tell the
      client to reduce its transmission power. However, 802.11h is only
      defined for 5 GHz, where the need for this is much smaller than on
      2.4 GHz.
      
      Cisco has their own solution, called DTPC (Dynamic Transmit Power
      Control). Cisco APs on a controller sometimes but not always send
      802.11h; they always send DTPC, even on 2.4 GHz. This patch adds support
      for parsing and honoring the DTPC IE in addition to the 802.11h
      element (they do not always contain the same limits, so both must
      be honored); the format is not documented, but very simple.
      
      Tested (on top of wireless.git and on 3.16.1) against a Cisco Aironet
      1142 joined to a Cisco 2504 WLC, by setting various transmit power
      levels for the given access points and observing the results.
      The Wireshark 802.11 dissector agrees with the interpretation of the
      element, except for negative numbers, which seem to never happen
      anyway.

      mac80211: fix offloaded BA session traffic after hw restart · 4549cf2b
      Michal Kazior 提交于
      When starting an offloaded BA session it is
      unknown what starting sequence number should be
      used. Using last_seq worked in most cases except
      after hw restart.
      
      When hw restart is requested last_seq is
      (rightfully so) kept unmodified. This ended up
      with BA sessions being restarted with an aribtrary
      BA window values resulting in dropped frames until
      sequence numbers caught up.
      
      Instead of last_seq pick seqno of a first Rxed
      frame of a given BA session.
      
      This fixes stalled traffic after hw restart with
      offloaded BA sessions (currently only ath10k).

      mac80211: fix on-channel remain-on-channel · b4b177a5
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Jouni reported that if a remain-on-channel was active on the
      same channel as the current operating channel, then the ROC
      would start, but any frames transmitted using mgmt-tx on the
      same channel would get delayed until after the ROC.
      
      The reason for this is that the ROC starts, but doesn't have
      any handling for "remain on the same channel", so it stops
      the interface queues. The later mgmt-tx then puts the frame
      on the interface queues (since it's on the current operating
      channel) and thus they get delayed until after the ROC.
      
      To fix this, add some logic to handle remaining on the same
      channel specially and not stop the queues etc. in this case.
      This not only fixes the bug but also improves behaviour in
      this case as data frames etc. can continue to flow.

      mac80211: fix CSA tx queue stopping · 59af6928
      Michal Kazior 提交于
      It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped
      if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case
      neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up.
      This means it was impossible to perform tx at all
      until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was
      performed later.
      
      It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner
      however this is more robust and future proof
      (having multi-vif CSA in mind).
      
      New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep
      track of which interfaces requested tx to be
      blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211
      stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means
      queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking
      CSA interface is finished.
      
      It is still possible to have tx queues stopped
      after CSA failure but as soon as offending
      interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or
      ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.

      mac80211: fix suspend vs. authentication race · 1a1cb744
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Since Stanislaw's patch removing the quiescing code, mac80211 had
      a race regarding suspend vs. authentication: as cfg80211 doesn't
      track authentication attempts, it can't abort them. Therefore the
      attempts may be kept running while suspending, which can lead to
      all kinds of issues, in at least some cases causing an error in
      iwlmvm firmware.
      
      Fix this by aborting the authentication attempt when suspending.

      mac80211: fix station wakeup powersave race · e3685e03
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Consider the following (relatively unlikely) scenario:
       1) station goes to sleep while frames are buffered in driver
       2) driver blocks wakeup (until no more frames are buffered)
       3) station wakes up again
       4) driver unblocks wakeup
      
      In this case, the current mac80211 code will do the following:
       1) WLAN_STA_PS_STA set
       2) WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER set
       3) - nothing -
       4) WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER cleared
      
      As a result, no frames will be delivered to the client, even
      though it is awake, until it sends another frame to us that
      triggers ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() in sta_ps_end().
      
      Since we now take the PS spinlock, we can fix this while at
      the same time removing the complexity with the pending skb
      queue function. This was broken since my commit 50a9432d
      ("mac80211: fix powersaving clients races") due to removing
      the clearing of WLAN_STA_PS_STA in the RX path.
      
      While at it, fix a cleanup path issue when a station is
      removed while the driver is still blocking its wakeup.
